It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-39969 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Linux. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-39969/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-39969/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-39969","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-39969/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-39969","record":{"aliases":["AZL-68489","BELL-CVE-2025-39969","DEBIAN-CVE-2025-39969","GHSA-xxpg-m5qg-jjxh","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-11-CVE-2025-39969","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-12-CVE-2025-39969","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-13-CVE-2025-39969","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2404-CVE-2025-39969","UBUNTU-CVE-2025-39969"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel driver","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A logic error in the i40e driver's VF state validation could lead to resource allocation issues, potentially causing denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"other"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\ni40e: fix validation of VF state in get resources\n\nVF state I40E_VF_STATE_ACTIVE is not the only state in which\nVF is actually active so it should not be used to determine\nif a VF is allowed to obtain resources.\n\nUse I40E_VF_STATE_RESOURCES_LOADED that is set only in\ni40e_vc_get_vf_resources_msg() and cleared during reset.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"i40e: fix validation of VF state in get resources","id":"CVE-2025-39969","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"other","year":"2025"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":8,"next":{"headline":"i40e: fix input validation logic for action_meta","id":"CVE-2025-39970"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"i40e: add max boundary check for VF filters","id":"CVE-2025-39968"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2025-10-15","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-10-15","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":"A logic error in the i40e driver's VF state validation could lead to resource allocation issues, potentially causing denial of service.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-39969/"}
